Sorry to hear you bought a lemon, glad though its covered under a warranty. I think anytime you buy a used car it can be a crap shoot. Probably the person who had it before abused the crap out of it. I bought mine used with 65,000 miles on it. Since then I've changed the 1. timing belt, all other belts in the engine, spark plugs replaced, engine flush, transmission flush, coolant flush, and regular oil changes... that's just the engine/tranny. I've had a lot of other brake work done, but again no engine leaks and it runs great and gets good fuel economy. With 85,000 miles I drove 3000 miles across the U.S. with it, never missed a beat.
